The Breatharian Experiment
First of all, there have been experiments involving breatharians, and the results are staggering—almost unbelievable. But skeptics argue that:
He could just be fasting and eating in secret as doctors recommend.
He might be lying for money, fame, or other reasons.
His muscular physique could be due to a well-planned diet rather than breatharian practices.
So, is he lying? And if so, why?
Why Would a Breatharian Lie?
Money?
If he’s doing this for money, it doesn’t add up. He already has a well-paying job in high-tech, and his retreats are relatively cheap—€2,500 for nine days, including a room (but no food, obviously). These retreats usually have fewer than ten participants, and most people only attend once in their life. If he wanted to make money, he could easily earn more by teaching yoga or something similar.
Risk vs. Reward
These retreats are dangerous. Why would he take such a huge risk for so little financial gain? If he were only in it for profit, this seems like a terrible business decision.
Fame?
If he’s seeking fame, it doesn’t seem worth it. He’s mostly ridiculed online, has a harder time dating and making friends, and barely gets any attention these days compared to eight years ago. Yet, he continues doing this year after year. If fame were his goal, why keep going when it’s not benefiting him anymore?
A Cult or Personal Gain?
Unlike some spiritual movements, he doesn’t have a group of devoted followers. He’s not gaining power, status, or sex from this. So if he’s lying, what’s the motivation?
The Big Questions:
Are breatharians lying? If so, what’s their real reason?
If they’re not lying, could their claims actually be true? If breatharianism is real, it sounds like an amazing way to live.
